An "Info dialog" appears when an event generates a message. The generically

short instructions lead you through the next steps.

Indicates a currently running process. If a process takes some time, a progress bar

shows the current state.

4.4.2.2 Accessing the functionality

All functionalities are provided in dialogs, menus, editors or keypads, as known from

computer programs. You can control the instrument intuitively with the touchscreen.

This section provides an overview of the accessing methods.

Apart from the main menus "Measurement" and "Device", we use the term "dialog" to

refer to all editable windows.

You can access the instrument's functions and settings by using one of the following

controls:

●

System and function keys at the front panel of the instrument

●

Interactive softkeys on the touchscreen, underlined in gray

To open the main menus

To open the two main menus:

1. Press the [settings] at the front panel.

2. Select (tap) the corresponding tab on the screen.

The selection leads you either to a settings parameter directly, or to a dedicated

dialog.

To select a parameter

If many parameters are available, they are often provided in a list:

1. If necessary, scroll through the list.

Tip: You do not need the focus exactly on the bar, touch and swipe the list.

4.4.2.3 Entering data

Some parameters have their own key at the front panel.

For data input in dialogs, the instrument provides on-screen keypads for entering

numeric and alphanumeric values. Thus, you can always set the parameters using the

touchscreen, or the navigation controls at the front panel.

To correct an entry

1. To delete an entry, set the cursor to the right of the entry you want to delete. To

select the position:

a) Select (tap) it in the entry field directly.
